Jack, George and the ball roll right off the cliff and now it's a parachute. But watch out, they're going to land in the river...Jack and George have a brilliant day full of adventure with this object that changes with the landscape. But what is it?

時至今日，程式開發已經不再是程式工程師的專利！108年學年度，教育部已將程式開發列為12年國教的課鋼之一。要不要學已經不再是爭執的重點，而是：一，怎麼學，二，在那裡用，才是我們該專注的目標。一，怎麼學?程式是電腦的語言，和我們人類講的語言當然一定有代溝；而剛學程式，最早獲得就是挫折感，然後，就沒有然後了。這應該是很多人第一次學習程式的感想吧?為了增加成就感，減少挫折感，筆者特地選用，號稱地表最簡單的程式語言 JavaScript 並先剪去往常講 JS 學習的書籍都會帶的 HTML 等前端語法。從後端開始，就可以建置應用，讓各位讀書可以輕鬆分享開發成果給好友，增進各位的成就感，進而有繼續學習下去的勇氣。有了學習的勇氣後，再一步一步的將目前程式開發大略會碰到的知識一步步代入，使各位成長。二，在那裡用?JavaScript 是一套很值得投資時間學習的語言，軟體開發界有一句名言「Anything that can be Written in JavaScript, will Eventually be Written in JavaScript」，意思是說：任何可以以 JavaScript 實現的應用，最終都會以 JavaScript 實現 。放在今時今日來看，javascript 除了在網頁前端上的發光發熱之外，在其他的領域都有相對應的套件，例如：後端有 node.js ，IOT 物聯裝置有 Node-Red … 除此之外，在G的領域，Google App Script 也是以 javascript 做為基礎所以研發的語言。在非技術工作上，培養邏輯思維；快速反應市場變化，降低對技術人員的倚賴；驗證商業構想，優化營運流程；以及規劃大型專案時，將商業需求轉譯為技術問題的能力，對於每一個人而言，應該都是數位時代職場競爭力的重要元素，也是掌握基本程式能力後，可望達成的目標。本書看點★三個面向的學習重點☆✪程式語法的學習基礎的程式語法是很重要的，本書前面篇幅偏重在語法的學習與練習。例如：JS程式學習篇：基本語法練習、JS程式學習篇：函式方法與物件、JS程式學習篇：決策與迴圈、JS程式學習篇：非同步與API✪程式應用的開發懂了程式語法之後，就要有辦法使用程式語法以及使用幫助開發工具，建構出符合需求的應用程式。本書在：IDE篇、實作練習篇：實作網站版剪刀石頭布、開源篇：npm &
